Da1nonly0015 Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Here are some pics of the Del Slow, I'll go from outside to in to under the hood, The rear liscense plate will be gone soon as i am shaving the rear, attena, trunk look and door locks. I got tinted tail lights that should be coming in soon and some cross drilled/slotted rotors as well. Hoping to go wilwood big brake later on. Lambo's hopefully will be put on this summer, and it is going to get painted Honda Nighthawk black in a few months 17 inch driftz gunmetal wrapped nitto neogens JL stealth box with 2 8's behind the seat what is powering those 8's Some interior work, still more to come Now for under the hood! The motor has been rebuilt to Type R specs, running 11:1 compretion. I am in the process of getting a Greedy header for it as I will be turboing the next motor I get which I am planning to drop 8-10 grand on. Let me know what you guys think or what else i could do to it, or idea's that you guys have came up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attaus Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Not bad at all.. the motor looks really clean. Normally I would be against Mugen valve covers but I love that color. I think the first step is a good detail/wash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyrorocketeer Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 .....then sandblast those drums.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da1nonly0015 Posted December 17, 2006 Author Share Posted December 17, 2006 yea it does need to be cleaned, I have been swapping parts left and right lately so I am waiting to get it finished to clean it all up. Thanks for the brake light cover, My Wifes focus has a cover over it so i went to a sign shop and had one made for mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da1nonly0015 Posted December 17, 2006 Author Share Posted December 17, 2006 I am going to do a rear disc conversion at the first of the year so I am not messing with the drums really. I tried to get a blue mugen cover but could only get grey so I had it stripped down and powdercoated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chubs Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Take off the stickers, and then try and find some OEM tail lights. Also I wasn't expecting all that blue haha but it actually looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mycarsux Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Wow, i've never seen anyone use so much blue. Its a good choice. Your car looks a little dirty. Try getting a good detail on that and have it turning heads (in a good way). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humphries Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 i dont like the rear bumper. i dont like fake mugen valve covers. i dont like how dirty it is. i dont like the tezzas i dont like the 17's i dont like blue engine bays unless they are VW's and match the color of the exterior. but the car looks like its bad ass. just those things i dont like. good job and nice work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TS John Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 Hahaha. Looks good man. A little showier than my tastes but nicely done. Don't get too attached to that CF hood, haha. Eh, my stock black would look better on there anyway (hint hint). You gonna stick around here, man? More sols the merrier, and you're a pretty cool dude.

Da1nonly0015 Posted December 17, 2006 Author Share Posted December 17, 2006 I am planning to get the window re tinted to 35 when i do all the stickers are coming off, Thanks for your guys input.

Da1nonly0015 Posted December 18, 2006 Author Share Posted December 18, 2006 i know it is the wings west rear lip, it is polyurethane, i refuse to put fiberglass back on the car. It will look alot better when i get it painted and fill in the gaps. But i got it in and bolted it on, trust me if it wasn't there my muffler would be sticking out about a foot and would look even stupidier. I'm not saying that everything fits perfectly right now but it's a work in progress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick B. Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 stupidier? stupid+ear? hmmm either way man, it doesnt look proportionate. its out of place. maybe a less outgoing lip would look nice, but the way it juts out away from the car looks like youre trying to make it fly or something. IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da1nonly0015 Posted December 18, 2006 Author Share Posted December 18, 2006 your right looking at the pic it looks about half retarded, but looking actually at the car it looks pretty descent, I dunno if it was in the way was shinning or the angle I took it but looking at that pic it sticks out like a sore thumb. As far as it flying well people say I have big ears so thats what makes my car go so fast but i guess with that comment i have to motive to go from.

Da1nonly0015 Posted December 18, 2006 Author Share Posted December 18, 2006 i've already had 4 diff mufflers on the damn thing and gotten a ticket for every one cuz there to loud the officer said. So i have a stock muffler with a tip, still loud but it's stock so there aint much a cop can do to you if it's stock. anything else looks gay. I got the car will a dual tip and i think it looks good on a sol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humphries Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 idk.. i just dont like the rear lip. get a RSR mag rear section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da1nonly0015 Posted December 18, 2006 Author Share Posted December 18, 2006 well everyones opinions are diff. there isn't to much you can do with the rear of a sol and not be using fiberglass. I am going to wait and see what it looks like once it gets molded and painted. If it still looks stupid I'll change my license plates to "shake your tail feather" LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nancy Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 you wanna race me in that? it doesnt look like you spent as much money as you claimed on that poor car. hopefully all the money went into engine work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reewinder Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I have seen some guy on Ebay selling decals to cover the 3rd brakelight. After the auction ends you just e-mail him whatever you want it to say. I can't remember the user name right off hand but if you do a search for "3rd brake light" you will find it easily.

oldrider60 Posted December 30, 2006 Share Posted December 30, 2006 Hahaha. Looks good man. A little showier than my tastes but nicely done. Don't get too attached to that CF hood, haha. Eh, my stock black would look better on there anyway (hint hint). You gonna stick around here, man? More sols the merrier, and you're a pretty cool dude. Alittle off topic here, but I noticed you have the same car I do and I am having an audio problem that I am hoping you can shed some light on. The original OEM radio/cassette, works with my Alpine 6 disc changer but the readout doesn't light up. I bought another OEM Radio/CD Player from a 98 Acura When I put the new, to me, CD deck in, the deck will play a CD and AM/FM but there is no power to the changer. It will not even eject the CD Cassette. All the plugs and DIN connectors look the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
